Discord AI images - Midjourney & SD
June 27, 2026
Discord-specific chains
- Midjourney bot → upscale → server upload - XMP software tags
- ComfyUI / A1111 PNG - tEXt with prompt and settings
- ChatGPT images in art servers - OpenAI C2PA
- Right-click save from others' posts - original source metadata remains
Discord compresses for CDN, but your first upload and locally saved copies keep provenance until you strip.
Why clean before Discord?
Commission clients and mods download files. An uncleaned master poisons every downstream channel . A Social_Ready folder beside raw downloads prevents mix-ups.
Workflow
- Export directly from MJ/SD/ChatGPT
- Metadata checker - C2PA, XMP, PNG chunks
- AI metadata remover - PNG chunk option for SD
- Post to Discord; use the same clean file for Instagram reposts
Summary
Discord is often step 1 in a repost chain. Clean the master before the server upload - use the Discord upload prep tool .

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Discord show an AI Info badge?
Discord has no Meta-style badge - but downloaders repost to Instagram/Pinterest, which read C2PA.
Sharing Midjourney upscales on a server?
Upscale JPGs keep XMP - strip before feedback channels so downloaders get clean masters.
Stable Diffusion PNG workflow JSON?
tEXt chunks in SD/ComfyUI exports expose settings - enable PNG chunk removal.
Before or after Discord CDN?
Clean the master before first upload - CDN re-encode does not fix provenance in saved copies.
Quality loss?
No - metadata only. Remove AI Label Team
